 Posted: Sun Dec 04, 2011 7:51 pm Post subject: Pomona Swap Meet Items! |
 |
|
So, today was the last meeting of this year for the Pomona Car Swap Meet. Incase anyone doesn't know, the Pomona Swap Meet has a section dedicated to a VW Swap Meet and Older VW/Porsche Car show. Today, I got the items listed below, all for only $38!
3 62-67 tail light lenses; US Speck. Very bottom and top left were $3 each, top right one was free (due to heavy cracking)
A 1:87 (VERY tiny) Karman Ghia dicast by Malibu International Ltd. $3
Chilton's VW Repair & Tune Up Book. $8
A very nice, black, VW ball cap! VERY nice! $6
And lastly, a Beetle T-shirt that says Pomona on it. $15
This was a very fun show, and will probably go again on Jan. 15, 2012.

Was that at one time a library book? The only place I have seen a non-paperback Chilton book (or one by any other publisher of VW repair manuals) is in a library. |

No, it wasn't. That's strange and cool. What's wired is it has a $4.95 price on the back cover, not a sticker, but in text.

In addition to that one, I have two other hard cover Chilton's. Someday I'll have to do a photo catalog of the couple hundred VW repair manuals I have.
